Chapter 221 Its finally my turn, Li Yuanfang, to deliver the book

"Going further to the west, you will reach Kangyanchuan, where my royal capital of Supi used to be."

"That felt tent is where Ru Ben is."

Working hard all the way, Li Yan and the others arrived at the important place of Sun Boru.

In addition to taking Yang Zaiwei with him and never leaving his sight for a moment, Li Yan also returned to the palace, asked the princess to write a handwritten letter, and asked Zhu Dan to bring it over.

This palace guard is the spokesperson of the princess outside. Having her come forward can save a lot of time.

However, after leaving Weiru and arriving at Sun Poru's area, what we saw was desolate.

Just like the clearing of the country during the Great War, all the people living outside disappeared, leaving only patches of barren fields.

At that time, Li Yan's heart sank.

If Sun Boru was in this state of misfortune, how could he borrow troops?

Fortunately, what he had learned told him that the Shigatse area controlled by Sun Boru was the main food production area of ​​Tibet in this era.

When the Qinling army fought abroad, at least half of their food was provided here.

In the process of Tubo unifying the plateau, swallowing Supi was a key step.

Just like when the Qin Dynasty acquired Bashu and built Dujiangyan, the supply of grain and grass suddenly became richer.

Sure enough, as they went deeper, they saw more and more fields being cultivated and cattle and sheep grazing.

When we arrived not far from Ruben's felt tent, we saw groups of armored soldiers patrolling in good order.

Yang Zaiwei sneered and said: "Sun Boru's people are prosperous and not in decline. He is suppressed like this. Why don't you rebel against him?"

Zhudan subconsciously wanted to refute it, but looking at Yang Zaiwei's ferocious look and thinking that this was a murderous assassin, he became intimidated again, and said weakly in Subi language: "You said it lightly, we are just on the same page.

How to react?"

Yang Zaiwei couldn't understand Subishu's words and stared: "What are you mumbling about!"

Li Yan gave him a cold look: "Shut up! Officer Zhudan, someone is coming. Go and explain the situation to them."

A group of female soldiers galloped over on horseback, and the burly female general at the head hugged Zhudan, obviously very familiar with her.

When Zai Zhudan took out the letter from the princess, her expression suddenly became serious. She looked at Li Yan and Yang Zaiwei carefully and made an invitation gesture.

Li Yan entered the military camp and observed carefully.

Sun Poru's armored soldiers are still mainly composed of men, with only personal guards, and generally only female soldiers are used.

Although the equipment is far from the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, their eyes, temperament, and marching behavior are all well-trained and can be used.

After a smooth journey, everyone came to the felt tent where Ru Ben was.

From the outside, this felt tent looks huge and gorgeous, but when you go inside, you find that you can't see everything at all. Instead, there are many curtains hanging down, layered on top of each other, like a maze.

At the same time, a turbid smell that couldn't be traced back to western spices or human sweat hit my face. It was obviously due to the lack of air circulation, and it was inevitable that servants were coming in and out. It was very unpleasant.

Li Yan frowned.

I thought I was entering the land of women, but it turned out to be Pansi Cave?

Yang Zaiwei is a professional, and he can see something fishy at a glance: "This is to prevent assassination!"

Zhudan explained: "Princes and daughters are often assassinated, and this is a last resort. This custom is common among Tibetan nobles, and it can also show the wealth of the master's family."

It was exactly as she said. When everyone walked around and came to Ru Ben, what they saw was an old woman sitting among pieces of gorgeous gold and silver ornaments.

The female general and Zhu Dan immediately stepped forward to salute: "Ru Ben!"

Yang Zaiwei squinted and sneered, while Li Yan took out the banner of the Tang Dynasty and nodded as a salute: "Li Yuanfang, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, has met Ru Ben, the last peasant."

When the old woman saw Jingjie, she was a little dazed at first, and then realized something. Her face changed slightly, and she stood up flexibly and saluted: "I have seen the messenger of Tian Khan!"

With the blessing of time and no need for translation, she also recognized the identity of the person coming.

It's just that the title is a bit interesting, Messenger of Heavenly Khan.

It has been more than 20 years since Li Shimin died, but many foreign races around the Tang Dynasty still recognize his reputation instead of Emperor Li Zhi.

This is true not only now, but also during the Wu and Zhou Dynasties in history.

Of course, prestige belongs to prestige. Regarding Li Yan's arrival, Ru Ben was respectful but wary: "I don't know what the important thing is for the envoy of the Khan of Heaven to come here?"

Li Yan smiled and said to Zhudan: "Guard Zhudan, first tell Mo Nongruben about the situation in the palace."

After Zhudan translated, Ruben was still wary, but he couldn't help but ask: "How is the princess?"

Zhu Dan presented the letter, and Ru Ben opened it and read it carefully.

At that time, Subi State was ruled by princesses and princesses, with two queens and two sets of government teams in one country.

This kind of administrative system is impossible without internal strife. Either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. Everyone wants to take more.

Later, when the country was overthrown, the feud between the prince and his daughter was settled.

Nowadays, the princesses do not have the Lu family, but belong to the lineage of the little princess, and the Ru Benmo Nong family, belong to the lineage of the big princess. One is the concubine in the central government, and the other is in power at the local level, and they often communicate with each other.

If Zamp is in power, can give orders, and the princess is favored, this kind of cooperation is actually very good.

But when Zanpu lost power, it was another matter. They struggled to survive and could barely survive.

After reading the letter, Ru Ben's eyes flickered slightly, and he became concerned about Zamp's health: "Is the king's health okay?"

Zhu Dan thought he was looking for a way to get rid of the odor, but he said: "The king has just recovered from a long illness. Although he was assassinated by thieves and occasionally lost his speech, everything else is fine. He can still compete with the guards and win the support of the army!"

Ru Ben couldn't believe it. This change was too big. He asked tentatively: "Is it the king who promoted the establishment of the post of censor?"

Zhu Dan said: "Exactly, the position of censor was inspired by the king from the Tang Dynasty. Except for some thieves who conspired to usurp power, Wu Ru's feedback was very good."

Ru Ben nodded: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

After asking for a lot of details, Ru Ben had a good idea and looked at Li Yan: "Thank you very much, Envoy Li, for helping the king and the princess!"

Li Yan got straight to the point: "No need to say thank you, I'm here to discuss important matters."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Ru Ben said seriously: "Envoy Li, please speak."

Li Yandao: "In the Tang Dynasty, we have a land called Jiangnan, which has money, food and profound cultural heritage. Previously, Jiangnan was marginalized due to the dictatorship of treacherous ministers. Fortunately, the saints and wise men got fair treatment."

"The same is true for you Sun Poru. You have clearly contributed a lot to Tubo, but you have been suppressed a lot. Not only Wei Ru from the central government, but also the other three Ru are secretly working together to curb your development."

"This situation was originally difficult to break, but now Zanpu wisely established the post of censor and won the support of Siru. Qinling privately withdrew his troops for the family's personal gain, causing Siru to suffer losses as well."

"This is the best opportunity for you, Sun Poru, to change the situation. If you miss this opportunity, you will always be exploited in Tubo!"

These words were so direct that Zhu Dan was so frightened when he translated them. Ru Ben's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he said in a dry voice: "Then what does Envoy Li want to do?"

Li Yan unfolded the map, pointed to the location of the secret guard's family, and said: "The Gar family kidnapped a large number of Sun Bo women and distributed them to their assassins and spies. This is where they are. This move is extremely humiliating. Why is it so?"

"

"I heard that the Gar family were originally your retainers and slaves. After taking refuge in Tubo, they helped Tibet destroy Subi."

"This is just like Su Hegui in Tuyuhun. Everyone in the old people will punish the traitors of the country. It is a pity that the Gar family has become a climate now. Instead, they are in charge of power and giving orders!"

Ruben opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, because this was the truth.

Li Yan continued: "Now the positions of your master and servant have been reversed. As a prince and daughter, you have to bend down and obey the orders of slaves. Ru Ben, please forgive me for speaking frankly. The other retainers under your command will not

Do you want to follow the same example? If the prestige of the royal lineage plummets, your descendants will have to give up their position as Ruben to other retainers in the future!"

These words were so heart-wrenching that Ru Ben's face became ugly and he took a deep breath: "It seems that Envoy Li is really familiar with the internal affairs of our clan. Could it be that he wants to imitate what the envoy Wang did in the past and use his words to express his feelings?

Recruiting troops to attack the Gar family?"

It was less than thirty years ago that Wang Xuance destroyed his country, and this Sun Bo Ruben was obviously deeply impressed.

At that time, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty escaped in blood, wrote a proclamation, recruited troops from all over the country, turned back, defeated the Tianzhu army, and finally destroyed the country. How majestic and shocking it was!

But afterwards, Wang Xuance returned to the Tang Dynasty, leaving behind a dispute that lasted for a long time.

Therefore, Ru Ben’s use of Wang Xuance as an example was definitely not a good intention.

Li Yan shook his head decisively: "As soon as the statement came out, it forced Guiru to advance without retreating, leaving no room for it. I will not do it."

"I came here this time really to bring order to the chaos, to suppress the arrogance of the Gar family, to rescue these poor women, and to return the power of Tibet to the hands of Zampu, who is good friends with me, the Tang Dynasty!"

"As for you, Sun Poru, you have only one reason for sending troops this time, and that is to rescue the abducted women of the same race. This is perfectly justified, and with Zanpu's permission, who can question it?"

Ruben looked moved and stared carefully at this unique messenger of the Khan of Heaven.

Li Yan also looked at the old Ru Ben.

Young people are motivated and dare to fight hard, while old people are nostalgic and reminisce about their glory.

What I fear most is middle age. When Supi was born, the country was already subjugated. He can no longer feel the glory of the past, and he does not have the energy of youth, and he will be ruined.

Now that Ru Ben is old, he took the right medicine and said in a slow tone: "Ru Ben, the Mo Nong, do you know that Tuyuhun is going to restore the country?"

Ru Ben's pupils shrank, and he immediately understood the underlying meaning: "Many countries were destroyed in the Tang Dynasty, and I have never heard of any examples of restoration in the Tang Dynasty. Forgive me for my ignorance."

Li Yan said: "It didn't happen before, doesn't mean it won't happen in the future."

"Tuyuhun was destroyed by the Tibetan invasion. I, the sage of the Tang Dynasty, deeply regretted it and made King Murong Khan the lord of Qinghai. This was precisely to advocate for the restoration of the country. Otherwise, how could there be any reason to make him the lord?"

"And now that Qinling has retreated from the old land of Tuyuhun, and our Heavenly Army of the Tang Dynasty has arrived, can't Tuyuhun be able to restore the country?"

Listening to his powerful words and looking at the banner representing the Emperor of Tang Dynasty in his hand, Ru Ben fell silent and his heart beat inexplicably faster.

Li Yan's tone was full of confidence: "Of course, you have to eat one meal at a time and walk one step at a time. It's too early to talk about that now. Please let Ruben first see the situation of Tuyuhun's restoration before talking about anything else?"

Ruben nodded involuntarily: "Not bad! Not bad! Let's look at Tuyuhun first!"

If Tuyuhun can recover, then maybe her Subi can too...

Li Yan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and asked Zhudan to present the book he had prepared: "This "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" is the records of the Western Regions written by Master Xuanzang, the eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty. It also contains

Ruben might as well take a look at Su Bi's situation."

Ru Ben stepped forward directly and took it respectfully: "Thank you very much, Ambassador Li, for the gift of the book."

Finally it was his turn to deliver the book.

Needless to say, it tastes pretty good.

Li Yan nodded and saluted: "Then I won't disturb Ru Ben's discussion and take my leave!"

He left with Yang Zaiwei, while Ru Ben looked through the "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" and found that the book had already been translated into Tubo texts, which was exactly what Zhu Niang and others were doing in the palace.

Ruben looked at the Subit offering plate, and his already cloudy eyes gradually became moist.

She didn't even know her motherland was so awesome.

Let’s look at Sun Boru today…

Thinking of the changes in Zanpu, the retreat of Qinling, the majesty of the Tang envoy, and all the major events that have happened recently.

The old princess from yesterday showed determination on her old face, the wrinkles on her face relaxed, and she spoke in a deep voice:

"Assemble all the guards and soldiers and recruit the heads of thousands of households to discuss matters!"
